A rare chance for Londoners to catch this beautiful and atmospheric film from Nicaragua. The country is currently witnessing significant investment in training a new generation of filmmakers.
María, 11 years old, lives with her mother Lilibeth on the edge of a huge garbage dump. Her future depends on selling a litter of purebred puppies to a local gang member. When the deal falls through, Lilibeth is forced to go to the outskirts of the city and leave Maria in a recycling factory where she has to stay working. Days go by and the mother does not return. Maria feels lost, bewildered, and angry. One night, María meets Tadeo, a noble and dreamy child who is determined to help her reunite with her mother.
The film won a number of awards at the San Sebastian International Film Festival, the Critics' Award at the Biarritz Latin American Festival, and the First Feature Award at the Morelia Film Festival, amongst others.
